get_interpolated_effective_area#
- irispy.utils.get_interpolated_effective_area(time_obs, response_version, detector_type, obs_wavelength)[source]#
To compute the interpolated time-dependent effective area.
It will generalize to the time of the observation.
- Parameters:
time_obs (an
astropy.time.Timeobject, as a kwarg, valid for version > 2) – Observation times of the datapoints. This argument is ignored for versions 1 and 2.response_version (
int) – Version number of effective area file to be used. Cannot be set simultaneously with response_file or pre_launch kwarg. Default=4.detector_type (
str) – Detector type: ‘FUV’ or ‘NUV’.obs_wavelength (
astropy.units.Quantity) – The wavelength at which the observation has been taken in Angstroms.
- Returns:
The effective area(s) determined by interpolation with a spline fit.
- Return type:
